I'm seriously considering getting a new printer – one of those laser jobs. Are there any special considerations using one of these printers with the Amiga? I've looked at the Okidata LaserLine 6 (rated best buy of '87 by Computer Shopper) and, of course, the HP LaserJet II. Are printer drivers available for the HP? Laserline emulates this printer. Also, is there anything I can do now with my 24 pin Toshiba that I can't do with a laser? Are graphics any trouble? How about envelopes? Is the .5MB that comes with the HP enough memory? Are there any other add-ons I should be considering right away? I've used thermal, thermal transfer, dot matrix and daisy wheel printers, but this is my first plunge into LaserLand. Any tips or advice at all about this fascinating machines would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance. Roger
